Robo B/S calls would make a big difference today. Delay took 2 pitches outside, both were called strikes. In the 1st, Hayes took a 2-0 pitch outside that should have made the count 3-0 with the bases loaded. But it was wrongly called a strike and changed the AB. So tired of umps changing ABs by not calling pitches correctly.

Some crappy baseball by the RedSox.

Big time performance by Keller so far!

BTW:

That catch by Bae yesterday was one of the greatest ever made against the Green Monster

Santana's having a game! Made a tough play at 1B look easy.

So, I've been tuning in lately. I just started watching today's game. Two questions...first, how could they possibly think that ball was fair?

Second, what happened to Cruz? Is he hurt?
